Replaced all three hand holds with new. Looks bigger in the pic but perfect match. Rivet holes lined up exactly. Hard to make out data plate will clean it up a little better and keep it attached to the shelter for posterity. The most rusted dolly bracket removed. Luckily very little to no...

Here we go! I am calling my HSTRU build complete so moving on to the next project. I am putting the M1102 & S250 shelter build on hold (kid likes it for a playhouse) while I move to my newly acquired AN/GRM-86X Electrical Equipment Maintenance Shelter and M720 Dolly set. Basically it has the...

I have seen various specs on the M720 Mobilizer scattered in different posts here on SS. Reading through the TM 9-2330-285-14, what I have read and what is in the book are different on what weight the dolly will carry. Here is the info strait out of the TM, Change 1, paragraph 1-9: Weight...

I guess pics wouldn't be complete in the 21st century without a drone view!

A few more showing the HAM radio antenna madness as well as the ARB awning room with 3 walls. Amazing what you can do with a few sections of PVC pipe, an old tripod, and OD green paint!

Here are a few pics from the AZ trip in May 2017. Almost all updated mods worked perfectly except new integrated faucet for the door sink. Connection hose seal crapped out but my fault for overtightening. Great adventure with a week worth of camping! OD

The HSTRU has a nice thick aluminum bumper on the back with the integrated drop down landing leg that would hold a tire carrier fairly easily... I thought about coming up with some sort of swing down tire carrier on the back but it would need to swing down to the ground since the rear door on...

;) Sorry to hear about your knee... OUCH! Get better soon. Man that would have been cool to meet up at the Expo. I really like the M1116A2 frame setup for pulling behind the jeep. Perfect pull for the JK and inside the wheel track. Eventually I would like to get the trailer axle to a 5 on 5.5...

HSTRU Update: Been working on the trailer for the past 5 months or so getting it ready for the annual cross country trek from Missouri to Arizona to attend the Overland Expo in Flagstaff in May and do some camping North of Pason and the Rim. Changed color to match the new Jeep, reconfigured...

I have been away from the forums for a while... Working on my HSTRU since last September to get it ready for this year's cross country trek to AZ for Overland Expo and camping. I haven't touched the S250 or trailer other than to grab a new tongue jack. Will get back to the project in the summer...

Great! Glad someone figured out a way to tow that works... The 720s seem to be all the rage now I can't get my hands on an S-280 with dolly brackets so my sad 720 is sitting all dejected :(

All, Thanks so much for your support guys. Much appreciated. Admins gave me permission to post up his info since really there isn't anything else I can do here... Here are the parts I supposedly paid for ($635): 1. Insulated ceiling panels <-- will just make my own 2. Fuel Tank L-brackets <--...

This might get moved by admins but I wanted to update my "problem" mentioned in my original post in this thread: I wanted to comment briefly on a disappointing development that is weighing heavily on my good times working on the LMTV and this very entertaining and fun hobby. I have bought quite...

FYI as a side note Missouri now has permanent tags for trailers. Also I am sending in the form to get the disabled vet plates and registration for free on the LMTV! Commercial plates for 24,000 non local are expensive!

Sargentwolf, yea they are good guys at Kour' s. Appointment was a week or so out. $12. They spent about an hour looking over the truck and they let me hang out in the shop with the mechanic. I raised and lowered the cab for them and had a good chat. This was my 2nd inspection at their place...

Oh, and Make is STST not Stuart & Stevenson from the Iron Planet FL title. If you try DMV ask them to look up that make and maybe it will pull up the truck description ;) Sorry I havent been around been putting lift, bumpers, and winch on my Jeep.

Mine is registered and titled in MO... Use another DMV office or send the paperwork directly to DOR in Jefferson City. I had the Florida title, invoice showing I paid sales tax, insurance, and the saftey inspection report. That is your Vin verification. I was in and out if DMV in 5 minutes. You...

My EXACT reason for trying to rehab my existing worn out cover... 15 years of filth and a rear flap that has been mashed in the tailgate and left to flap freely. I just got thru spending a WEEKEND cleaning my top. Finally found a cleaner that would get the grime out with elbow grease with a...

Finished install! Updated the first post with pics and info.... so you scrolled down here for nothing :) sorry OD

I know we have a MILLION AC threads going on in here and I was going to post this in my AC Compressor Brackets Install thread but that one is pretty cluttered now too so I decided to post a separate item. Going to try and keep this thread specific to LMTV compressor drive and tensioner pulleys...
